Won two races within a week here last year over C&D on different ground types; some good efforts at Laytown and Dundalk since then; beaten 8l in an AW handicap when last seen in November (1m); 10lb higher since last winning mark but worth a look back at this track.

Won two races within a week at Leopardstown in June and nearly went in again at Laytown last month; latest effort at Roscommon wasn't her best but has bouncebackability.
